Welcome Priscilla, so glad to have you here! I love your picture of KittyJoe. I have a couple of kitties that just come to visit. I have a black and white one that comes over when she has kittens to teach them to hunt out in my yard, sometimes I'll find then out on my back porch resting after they had a big adventure.

Also for the last couple of weeks I've had a new one start showing up that is just gorgeous, it's calico with 4 white stockings. I hope it sticks around I really like it. I've had cats before, that I got really attached to. One was named Pumpkin. He was a really big orange cat, but one day he just didn't come home. For the last 20 years though I've just had toy poodles. They are all passed on now and I didn't want the expense of having another dog right now, but I think a lot about maybe getting a golden retriever someday, but maybe if the calico cat keeps coming around I'll just keep it instead. I love animals and I have some deer that live out back in my yard, they have a little fawn that has come up to the house exploring, they mostly stay out back in my trees but sometimes come up to the house. Glad to see you here and hope to hear more about your cat.
